Yep, I find the worldwide fascination with British royalty silly. But it's also fun. Kind of like following the antics of Lindsay Lohan or the Kardashians.

So, it was just announced TODAY that Kate is pregnant??? Were there rumors of it before? I saw one of those gossip rags at the supermarket today. The one that continually picks on Camilla. (The Globe?) I could have sworn that it had something about Camilla being furious about Kate's baby and going into an alcoholic rage.

Yes, secession was dumb, I'm quite tired. If you think I claim to know it all, might want to brush up on where I ever claimed that.

As I said back then, Hillary Rodham added Clinton's name to hers because the voters in Arkansas are what they are. She never used it before that, she didn't use it after that except in those terms. I have respect for her, she has respect for herself, I'll use her own name. Call her whatever you want.

Actually I believe she didn't add Clinton to her name, she went by Hillary Clinton when he was governor, and then went by Hillary Rodham Clinton when he became president.

Harry gets knocked down a notch no matter what. The only thing the rule would change is if the first child is a girl, she'd no longer be knocked down a notch by her later born brother. Any child of William will be ahead of Harry.

Exactly.

Currently I believe England practices what is known as Male Preference Primogeniture, meaning the oldest male child inherits even if he has older sisters. What they are going to is Equal Primogeniture meaning simply the oldest child regardless of gender inherits.

Not until all the Parliaments of the Commonwealth approve the changes. He should work at getting one of the countries on his side.

Prince Harry going down one in the line to the throne doesn't need parliament or the commonwealth approval it happens as soon as the babyis born. Its what happened to Andrew after all. Queen Elizabeth took precedent over the Duke of Gloucester the Duke of Kent after all. Lastly if Prince William dies before he becomes king his child will become King not Harry. George III was the grandson of George II not son his father the Prince of Wales died before his father did.

I know, I was responding to the one poster on this thread who has been trying to tell everyone that the change has been made already.

I also remember hearing that she did go by Hillary Rodham when he was first governor of Arkansas. There was some criticism about it in the state, so she added Clinton (while he was still Governor).

He was elected in 1978. She added Clinton in 1982. Ever since then she has been known as Hillary Rodham Clinton, and referred to as Mrs. Clinton (as First Lady), Senator Clinton and Secretary Clinton. Since she added the name, she has never been known as Hillary Rodham nor has she referred to herself as such, contrary to what Cornflake wants to cling to.

She must be talking about before they were married. But then again I am in a city but not the City.
